20411 - Implement reflection of JavaBean properties

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core Graveyard :: Java: Live Connect, enhancement, P4)

Description

[Scott Furman]

Kurt Westerfeld proposed a BeanConnect-like feature in LiveConnect wherein bean
properties of a JavaBean instance are reflected as JS properties.  This was
implemented by Kurt for Rhino but not for the C-engine.  If we want to advertise
this feature as being part of this release of LC, it will need to be implemented
in SpiderMonkey.

Okay, sounds good: I'll take a look at it.  Won't be the highest-priority bug on
my list right now, but if you really need this soon, bug me and we can work the
priority.

M16 has been out for a while now, these bugs target milestones need to be 
updated.

Not gonna do this for a while, don't know when.  It's not as high a priority as
other Java integration bugs.  Lowering priority and changing the Target
Milestone of this bug to an indeterminate Future.  Also, re-assigning to module
owner.

[RFE] is deprecated in favor of severity: enhancement.  They have the same meaning.

Firefox code moved from custom Liveconnect code to the NPAPI/NPRuntime bridge a while back. Mass-closing the bugs in the liveconnect component which are likely invalid. If you believe that this bug is still relevant to modern versions of Firefox, please reopen it and move it the "Core" product, component "Plug-Ins".
